Knitting, Crocheting and comments about life

Archive for the tag “interweave press: basic crochet patterns”

So yesterday I shared about returning to my first needlework love- crochet. I thought I was going to blog about something else again but I must admit my first love just keeps wooing me more in her direction!

Today in an effort to design some modern mittens I turned to one of my favorite stitch dictionaries (there are so many out there) but the current one I am using is Interweave Press’s: Basic Crochet Stitches. The textures are gorgeous, the colors are beautiful.

Ah crochet, how I love thee….
1) so easy to transport
2) so versatile
3) getting a makeover by modern designers

Not sure if you like crochet…. pick up a modern stitch dictionary or a great modern crochet publication and just try it watch that hook woo you.
